The Corruption Is Palpable.

ENRON, AIG, Wells Fargo.

These are blue chip crooks.



There are many, many more examples of the world's biggest corporations breaking the law for the betterment of their shareholders' overseas accounts. Instead, truth tellers end up in jail.

What gives? Going by the relatively few prosecutions and the near-zero lack of interest by those in positions of authority, I have come to conclude those who abused their positions of trust will not be held accountable. That means those of a certain class are above the law and will continue to abuse their wealth and power at the expense of the "little people" and the "small people."

Agree? Disagree? Don't give a damn?

What do you think and why do you think that way?

Me? I wanna do something about it. I want to see the crooks pay for their crimes -- in terms of restitution and in terms of sentences of 50-years to life in prison.
